THE Candy brothers, property developers to the super-rich, are poised to enter the bidding battle for the Grosvenor House hotel on London’s Park Lane.
The five-star hotel is owned by Royal Bank of Scotland, the state-backed bank. It has appointed property agents at CB Richard Ellis to begin marketing the property, which overlooks Hyde Park. RBS is hoping to sell it for more than £500m.
